Can You Get To That Songtext
Well I once had a life
Or rather life had me

I was one among the many
Or at least it seemed to be

Well I read an old quotation
In a book just yesterday

Said "you reap just what you sew"
But I guess that's a fate you'll have to pay

Verse
Can you get to that, I wanna know if you can get to that
Can you get, I wanna know
Can you get to that

Well I recollect with mixed emotion
All the good times we used to have
But you're making preparation for the common separation
And you threw in everything you had.

When you base your life on credit
And your loving days are done
Checks you signed with love and kisses
Later come back "insufficient funds"

Verse
